Hello, crafty friends!
Ching-Chou Kuik's monthly Facebook Challenge is going on now. The theme is "Recycle". https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.1788141307888835&type=3 I just love to alter liquor bottles with interesting shapes. So, I decided to alter a Frangelico bottle for my DT project. This bottle is shaped like a friar in his habit. So cool! This is what I started with:
I applied gesso as a base over the entire bottle and then painted over it with acrylic paint. Using glittered paper, I cut out 3 die cuts using Tonic Studio's "Star Trail Die". I applied Mod Podge (matte finish) over the bottle before applying the die cuts and the image. The leaves are from La-La Land Crafts "Open Leaf Flourish Die".
The gorgeous image is "Lavender Adventure Night" by Ching-Chou Kuik, found here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/197620336/lavender-adventure-night-digital-stamp?ref=shop_home_active_14 and also here along with two other beautiful images: https://www.etsy.com/listing/628948705/intro-price-little-darling-animal-set?ref=shop_home_active_2

Here is what the back looks like:
I coloured the image with Copic markers and FC Polychromos pencils. The flower is handmade. Lace, pearl borders, necklace, charms and beads are from my stash.
I wish you a happy day! Lori P xx
